[antlr-interest] Text focus bug in ANLTR works on Ubuntu make it unusable.

[Norman Dunbar]

Morning Chris,

> I've been interested in looking at ANTLR for several years.
I've only just discovered it. I'm planning (to bite off more than I can 
chew no doubt) a little language all of my own - soon!

I'm afraid that I don't see this bug in OpenSuse 11.4 64 bit.

I'm on OpenJDK at the moment - something I installed must have changed 
it, I normally have the Sun Java as my selection. (I think Chrome 
changed it if I remember correctly - I'll have to change it back soon.)

Same as mine.

I have this:

norman at hubble:~> java -version
java version "1.6.0_22"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.10.2) (suse-4.3.1-x86_64)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)

> Is anyone on this list successfully using AntlrWorks with Ubuntu AMD64?
No, sorry, not on Ubuntu. I can happily use the foreground text fields 
etc when I click in them. I'm afraid I don't see your bug.

Sorry I can't really help you here, it might be an Ubuntu problem? It 
certainly isn't showing up on OpenSuse.


Good luck.


Cheers,
Norm.
